The folks behind the Web & PHP Magazine have announced a new event they'll be putting on in San Jose, California in September of this year - the Web & PHP Conference. It's a four day conference featuring sessions, keynotes, an expo and "open knowledge sharing".

Web & PHP Magazine invites you to its first ever conference. This four-day event in September will immerse you in a world of continuously changing and evolving web technologies. Developers will get together and trade great ideas at Web & PHP Con. Whether your interests lay in core PHP, security, testing, architecture, frameworks or cloud, this is the place for you. Maybe HTML5, CSS3, responsive design, UX, mobile web or web-based mobile apps are where it's at for you. That's okay - we'll have loads. And if Agile, DevOps, Continuous Delivery or strategies are in your presentation bucket list, you won't be disappointed. Come and hear about latest technologies and methods, discuss your own project developments and find new solutions.

They've also opened their call for papers so you can submit your own ideas to present. There's a wide range of themes they're looking for at the event including things like:

Core PHP

Testing & Quality

HTML5 & CSS3

Mobile Web, Responsive Design

User Experience Design (UX)

E-Commerce, Magento, etc

Hurry and get your submissions in though - the deadline is April 26th!

Cal Evans of Zend's Developer Zone (one of the attendees and facilitators of the conference) has posted his own wrapup of life in San Jose for that week, including candid shots and tons of great info for the week.

As I write this, it's Sunday. I'm sitting here in the lobby of the San Jose Doubletree Hotel. [...] Now that I've had a chance to relax and gather my thoughts, let's glance back over the shoulder before packing up for the next conference.

For each day, he gives the highlights, both of the people he met and of the talks/tutorials attended. There's even a few special announcements included that happened during the week - like about the new ZendBox the company will be offering. After-hours activities were mentioned as well, including the "Pirate Party" IBM threw the last night of the conference.
